Five Star Epoxy Novolac Grout is a three component, highly chemical resistant, 100% solids grout designed for industrial applications in aggressive chemical environments where exposure to concentrated acids, alkalis, corrosives or solvents can occur. Five Star® Epoxy Novolac Grout has excellent flowability, is highly chemical resistant, and exhibits positive expansion when tested in accordance with ASTM C 827.
Five Star Epoxy Novolac Grout is a three-component, 100% solids epoxy grout for industrial equipment in aggressive chemical environments. It combines high flow, high effective bearing, and resistance to concentrated acids, alkalis, corrosives, and solvents. Use it under machinery and pump baseplates, process equipment, and secondary containment grouting.
